On the night of my wedding to Pierce, he dragged me to the cemetery to apologize to his pure love, Seraphina. The girl on the tombstone looked peaceful and gentle, a stark contrast to her frantic escape that day. I knelt with my palms facing up, allowing the candle wax to drip onto my hands without making a sound. Pierce stood nearby holding a candle, his face dark and unreadable: "Does it hurt? Three years ago tonight, Cadence suffered a hundredfold, a thousandfold more pain than this." "She probably never knew that the one who sent her to her fiery grave was her own beloved little sister!" In front of me, he confessed to Seraphina's tombstone that our marriage was just a means to keep me by his side. "Don't worry, Cadence. I'll make sure Archer suffers a fate worse than death!" I kept my head down, struggling to hold back a smile. Pierce had no idea that the big fire was a show orchestrated by Seraphina herself. And I? I had simply made a deal with her to get information about my birth parents.

“Some doors are locked for a reason. Some secrets survive because they were never meant to be found.” Thriller writer Nidhi Agarwal wanted only one thing from Manali — silence. A quiet guesthouse buried beneath snow seemed perfect for escaping deadlines, memories, and the noise of Delhi. Until she learns the lower wing isn’t empty. A man named Raghav Sheth appears at impossible hours, hides too many secrets, and watches the world like he’s waiting for something to happen. The locals avoid questions. Strange sounds echo through the wooden halls at night. And the deeper Nidhi digs, the more she realizes her fictional thrillers may have prepared her for one terrifying truth: Someone in that house is lying. As storms close the roads and danger inches closer, trust becomes a weapon — and attraction becomes the deadliest mistake of all. Because in Manali, buried secrets don’t stay buried forever. "CODE:FALCON". Every code has a price.

In 2085, the Institute of Quantum Physics in the Desert in Nevada, USA detected an abnormal time fluctuation. Astrophysicist Erin Carter discovered that Earth's time is reset in a cycle of 72 hours, and the only thing that retains memory is a group of "awakeners" whose brains are not erased by time due to the quantum entanglement effect. As the investigation deepened, Erin discovered that the source of the cycle was a "time cocoon" device from 12 billion light years away, deployed by an alien civilization called "Silent". The silent believe that any civilization that cannot break through the shackles of time should be eliminated to maintain the order of the entropy increase in the universe. Meanwhile, American society is in chaos due to the cycle: the rich try to monopolize reset the rules, the doomsday carnival broke out in slums, and the government plans to destroy the cocoon with nuclear weapons. Erin must join forces with the Awakener to crack the time code for a limited time and answer the ultimate question - is human beings worthy of being tolerated by the universe?
